Drove/rode in one in '04 in Transylvania (of all places), wanted one ever since. Just did the order thing on 3/20/08, keeping fingers crossed it will come sooner than later. Order thingie around 14xx. Ordered Passion, red/silver w/black leather (convenience package). Seemed to be the most common and therefore the one easiest to find 'orphaned'.
Good luck to you getting one quickly. I just configured my reservation car last week that I reserved in September. Thought I would have to wait a few more months, but got a call yesterday about an orphan. I'll pick up a red Pure on Friday. Thats after only 2.5 weeks on the orphan list. I told them I wasn't picky about color, options, or even model so maybe thats why I got called so quick. My dealer didn't even add any dealer options. How lucky am I!
Actually my order number is 14xx, I can't quite recall the last two digits (it's in another bag). I ordered from Edison, since they don't seem to sell them w/i 75 miles of me. (I'm actually closer to where NY, NJ and PA meet.
Good, good, good, lots of excitement over a new little one. Congratulations and best of luck. We introduced friends to our blackie last week and guess what.....she's called to be on the orphan list.
